The reason for the proposed skirt height in the tower process design
Thread Content
During the review of the process equipment data sheet, the note stating \"It is recommended that the skirt height be 7 m; the exact value will be determined during the engineering design phase\" was observed. Are there any other reasons for the height of the tower skirt base besides considering the installation heights of the reboiler and the bottom liquid pump?
The height of the skirt seat H3=2.0+1.5D/2=
It is also related to the overall height difference arrangement of the unit project as well as energy conservation and economic efficiency.
Check the vacuum level of your tower; if the vacuum is too low, the skirt is too short, and there isn’t enough liquid in front of the pump
If the tower operates under negative pressure, increasing the height of the tower skirt helps reduce cavitation in the bottom pump, thereby aiding in its protection
Setting of the tower operating platform, height of the pipe bridge side beams.
The height of the tower skirt base is primarily determined by the process conditions. It depends on your specific process conditions.
Mm-hmm, I really didn’t expect that
What is the basis for this? Need an explanation? Seek the truth?
NPSH is the most important factor in determining the skirt height.
